The font is a PS font, so you need a PS printer or \path{ghostscript}. Alternatively, you can use \path{pdflatex} to produce a PDF file. The font provides the ``official'' Euro currency symbol, Euro symbols which go well with the Times / Helvetica / Courier fonts, warning and safety-related symbols, astronomy symbols, zodiac signs and many others. \end{abstract} \section{Installation} In the following, replace \path{$TEXMF} with your actual texmf directory, e.\,g. \texttt{/usr/share/texmf}. \begin{itemize} \item Copy \path{marvosym.pfb} into a directory where dvips can find it, e.\,g. \path{$TEXMF/fonts/type1/public/marvosym/}. \item Copy \path{fmvr8x.tfm} into a directory where \TeX{} will find it, e.\,g. \path{$TEXMF/fonts/tfm/public/marvosym/}. \item Add the line \\ \verb*+fmvr8x MarVoSym }{\email{thenlich@rcs.urz.tu-dresden.de}}, who also converted the font to a Type 1 font. The latter involved running \path{ttf2pt1} and doing some manual fixes afterwards. \section{History} \begin{sloppypar} \begin{labeling}{9999-99-99} \item[2000-04-21] Updated the font and documentation. Changed /FontName to MarVoSym. Many new glyphs. Removed: \path{\Kross}, \path{\Snowflake}, \path{\Circles}, \path{\Womanside}, \path{\Manside}, \path{\Womanfront}, \path{\Manfront}. \item[1998-07-20] Changed (*) to /* in /FontName. Thanks to Denis B. Roegel for telling me about this. \item[1998-06-21] Conversion to type 1 font now done with ttf2pt1 program. Font works now with dvips 5.78 and partial font downloading. Thanks to Uwe W. Gehring and Armin Geisse for cooperation. Added \verb+\Ankh+ macro. Renamed some macros. \item[1998-06-10] First version. \end{labeling} \end{sloppypar} \section{Software} \path{ttf2pt1}, the TrueType to PS type 1 font converter, is free software. See \url{http://ttf2pt1.sourceforge.net/} for more information. \end{document} %%% Local Varibles: %%% mode: latex %%% TeX-master: t %%% End:
